Good men don't abuse women; they don't bully them, or intimidate them, and they certainly don't beat them.

Jewel is sick and tired of being used like a punchbag by her gangster husband. She'd leave him, if she could be sure Jack wouldn't take it out on her friends, and if there was somewhere she could go where Jack couldn't find her. The only man not intimidated by Jewel's violent husband is Tom, the hot law enforcement officer who has arrested Jack on more than one occasion. When the other member of the Ladies Club manage to get Jewel and Tom together, Jewel has no idea that Tom’s harsh exterior hides a heart of gold, along with an appetite that adds risk to attraction and a mega-boost to Jewel’s feelings of self-worth.
